AFCHANISTAN.

New York, Feb. 21-The Stars
London cablegram says: Dispatches
from India state that Russian agents
are organizing another rising Of the
Ghilzai tribes against England's
ally, the Ameer of Afghanistan.
The Ghilzai chiefs have received
large supplies Of Russian arms,
ammunition and treasure, and are act
ing under the direction Of Russian
officers. The enormous concentra-
ton of Russian troops and war
material at Merry, Samarcand and
strategic points threatening Herat
indicates an early Russian advance
in the direction of Herat and gives
color to the reported substituting OF
the Ghilazais by the Russians.
1t has leaked out that the Indian
Government has warned the Home
Cabinet that the Ameer will shortly
require effective support and has
asked for sanction to push forward
troops to Canadahar for that pur-
pose. The application is under
consideration, and in the meantime
the Indian authorities are taking
matters in their own hands as usual
and making the necessary DISPOSE

SOME SMALL STATES.

1t would probably puzzle most
people to give q complete list of the
sovereign states of Europe. We
don't mean to suggest that they
would be likely to omit Montenegro,
or Servia, or Belgium, or Greece, or
even Monaco, with its 1920 sub
iects. But there is Andorra. One
is prone to overlook its 600 square
miles, and 10000 mountainecrs.
And there is San Marine, the sole
survivor of the old and once numer-
GUS republics of Italy. 1t contains
only about 90 square miles and 5000
inhabitants yet it is q military
power, and has an army of $50 men,
while its revenue amounts to nearly
$4,000 year. And there is the
principality of Lichtenstein, between
the Tyrol and Switzerland. There
is only very little of this charming
country. The land measures but
twelve or thirteen miles in length,
and the proud nation that inhabits
it consists of only 10000 souls;
but, such as it is, this little princi-
pality exists under the rule of his
most transparent Highness John III. );
and it is protected by intimate
alliance with Austria. Still more
restricted in extent is the republic
Of Moresnet, between Verviers, in
Belgium, and A!x-la-Chapelle. Its
dominion reaches over only four
square miles, it possesses about
5000 inhabitants, and its annual
revenue amounts to less than 81, 500.
The national army consists of one
soldier, who also acts as policeman.
